Is Aris Mining's Higher Gold Production a Catalyst for Future Growth?

Aris Mining Corporation ARMN reported solid growth in gold production in third quarter of 2025.  In the quarter, the company produced 73,236 ounces of gold, increasing 36.6% on a year-over-year basis. Production also rose 25% from the prior quarter. ARMN’s gold production growth is primarily driven by the Segovia mine, where the commissioning of a second mill has increased its gold processing capacity. While the Marmato upper mine continues steady production, the development of its Bulk Mining Zone is progressing, with first gold exploration expected in the second half of 2026.

Segovia posted a 38% year-over-year increase in production to 65,549 ounces in the third quarter. Also, the Colombia-based Marmato Upper Mine produced 7,687 ounces of gold, rising 25.7% from the year-ago quarter.

Beyond its operating mines, Aris Mining is strengthening its growth pipeline with a 51% stake in Colombia’s Soto Norte Project, where a recent pre-feasibility study confirmed its high potential as an undeveloped gold asset in the Americas. In Guyana, ARMN released a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for its fully owned Toroparu Project in October 2025, which shows that Toroparu has the potential to become a long-lasting and low-cost mine. 

The company is expected to produce 230,000-275,000 ounces of gold in 2025. As ARMN advances its expansion initiative, it is well-positioned to reach its production targets and boost its presence in Latin America’s gold mining industry.
